New Russian arms program to finance nuclear cruiser Admiral Nakhimovs upgrade
The money for upgrade and re-design of nuclear cruiser Admiral Nakhimov will be included in the new state arms program.
We are applying for the financing of the new state arms program from 2006 to 2015.

We believe the ship must be repaired and stay in the navy for a long period Shlemov underlined.
